Masha Vincent‘s newest song, “Tenderness,” and Pascale Voltaire‘s masterful remix show how technical precision and raw emotional impact can come together.
It was released on the cutting-edge Deep Tales label and is a two-track trip that uses sound to explore vulnerability in new and deeply human ways. The original mix is like a hypnotic invitation. Vincent weaves a sound tapestry where strange melodic techno elements are woven together with Asian-inspired harmonies, making places where people can lose themselves and then find them again.
Vincent paid great attention to every detail in the production; each percussion part fits perfectly in the mix and works with the ethereal synth work instead of fighting with it. What’s most amazing about the track is that it stays emotional even though it’s very technically difficult. Too often, producers choose function over feeling, but Vincent makes the emotional effect stronger by carefully choosing the sounds he uses.

In her version, Pascale Voltaire changes this emotional base and sees it through a darker, faster lens. It is amazing how things have changed. While Vincent makes room for reflection, Voltaire produces a sense of urgency with a strong, wide baseline that moves the air around it. The remix doesn’t just adapt; it talks with the original, recognizing what it’s about while making its own unique style.
In Voltaire’s version, the second half adds eerie vocal parts that float above the rhythmic structure like ghosts, making moments of dissonant beauty in the middle of the constant drive. This mix of ethereal and earthbound elements reflects the main idea of the release, which is that tenderness can show up in places where energy is usually expected.

INZO has launched a new label, Local Void Records, marking a significant milestone in the career of one of today's brightest electronic music producers.
The label, which has been a decade-long ambition for the Chicago-born DJ, aims to provide a platform for emerging artists struggling to gain visibility in today's increasingly competitive dance music landscape.
"Manifesting a platform that provides opportunities for other artists to have a chance of getting their music heard is something I'm extremely passionate about," INZO said in a statement. "I understand the struggle of how hard it is to get your music out there and this feels like a way I can give back."
INZO first gained significant attention in 2018 with the release of "Overthinker," a breakthrough release that interpolates a sample of Alan Watts' philosophical musings through lush, atmospheric production. "Young Majestic," released in 2024, was named by EDM.com as one of the year's best tracks. He's now primed for his debut performance at EDC Las Vegas, one of the world's largest festivals, and his first-ever headline at Colorado's fabled Red Rocks Amphitheatre.
The name "Local Void" draws inspiration from astronomical concepts, representing an expansive space with unlimited potential for artists to experiment.
"The void is not empty... it's a place of infinite possibility, INZO explained. "Just like that cosmic void, Local Void is a space where artists can push boundaries and explore new dimensions of sound without limitation. It's a home for anyone who feels their music has something unique to offer, and it’s a space that will continually evolve, welcoming new voices and fresh ideas."
While the initial focus of Local Void will be on releasing music, INZO revealed plans for broader development. The label has assembled what he describes as "a team of passionate individuals who are excited to grow this entity into something bigger with the mission of uplifting and inspiring others."
The first releases from Local Void Records are expected to be announced in the weeks ahead. You can find out more about the new label at its official website.

ILLENIUM has linked up with Kid Cudi in the studio, hinting at a potential dream collaboration.
The chart-topping DJ and producer took to his Instagram Story this week to share an image from a studio session with Cudi as well as a pair of Grammy-winning musicians, Jean Baptiste and Victor Thell.
For fans of both artists, this collaboration represents a natural evolution rather than a surprising departure. ILLENIUM has consistently pushed the boundaries of electronic music with punk and alt-rock influences while Cudi has never shied away from experimental soundscapes that defy traditional hip-hop constraints.
It's the latest foray into electronic music for the iconic rapper and singer-songwriter, whose track "Pursuit of Happiness" remains a generational dance anthem. Earlier this month, Cudi joined house music superstar Dom Dolla onstage at Madison Square Garden, where the two debuted a stunning collaboration.
It's important to note that neither Cudi nor ILLENIUM has formally confirmed a new single at the time of this writing. Check out an image from their studio session below.

Australia has dropped out of the top 10 global music markets for the first time in nearly 30 years, according to the latest Global Music Report from the International Federation of the Phonographic Industry (IFPI).
The annual report, released this week, ranks the world’s largest music markets based on recorded music revenues. The United States, Japan, and the United Kingdom hold the top three positions. Australia on the other hand, which has been in the top 10 since at least 1996, has now fallen out. Mexico has overtaken it to claim the final spot.
Despite this shift, Australia’s recorded music revenues continue to grow. The IFPI report shows that revenues in Australasia reached $629 million in 2024, a 6.4% increase, with Australia itself seeing a 6.1% rise. New Zealand also experienced a 7.8% revenue boost. However, these gains were outpaced by faster-growing markets like Mexico, which saw a 15.6% increase. Brazil is now ranked ninth, with an impressive 21.7% growth.
Historically, Australia has been a strong contender in the global music industry, reaching as high as No. 6 in the IFPI rankings in 2004 and maintaining that position from 2007 to 2015. In recent years, however, the country has hovered near the edge of the top 10 before ultimately dropping out this past year.
This decline raises questions about the factors influencing Australia’s global position. While growth remains steady, the rapid rise of emerging markets suggests shifting industry investments and evolving audience engagement. Countries like Mexico and Brazil have benefited from increased A&R investment, marketing efforts, and local talent development, boosting their international influence.
Overall, the IFPI’s Global Market Overview remains optimistic, noting that global music revenues grew for the tenth consecutive year, rising 4.8% to $29.6 billion.
For Australia, the challenge now is to strengthen its foothold in the evolving global market. Recent figures from ARIA indicate six consecutive years of growth in Australia’s recorded music sector, but industry leaders may need to adopt new strategies to regain their competitive edge. Increased investment in local artists, a stronger push for international market penetration, and innovations in streaming and digital distribution could be key to reclaiming a top 10 position.

Burgeoning LA-based producer kstko released his breathtaking track ‘My Melody’ featuring 1MO, and vocals from NEVVE on 21 March. 
The single encapsulates the essence of self-expression, and the freedom that comes with letting yourself go while dancing.‘My Melody’ is a striking track with a throbbing bassline, and a cinematic, uplifting atmosphere which allows the listener to escape from the heaviness of life. The single will seamlessly translate onto any dancefloor, while still holding space for emotional resonance. 1MO adds his signature bass-driven touch to the track, creating a ferocious momentum throughout, while NEVVE’s vocals provide a sense of warmth and comfort. 
As a producer, DJ and songwriter who merges elements of electronic rock, hip-hop, trap and orchestral music, kstko has carved out his own distinct soundscape, which he dubs “MID EVIL”. This genre is a sublime balance of light and dark, which is also exhibited in ‘My Melody’.
Speaking on the track, kstko shared; “after moving to LA in the summer of 2024, I was swept up in a whirlwind of excitement and nerves. When I first heard this topline, it resonated with me, enabling me to fully immerse myself in the music and release any fear of failure. I hope my listeners can experience the same, losing themselves in the rhythm of the beat.” 
In his short, yet impactful career, kstko has received support from the likes of Fred Again for his remix of ‘Rumble’, and has been on a roll since he quit his day job last year to pursue music full time.
A gripping music video has been released alongside the single too. Filmed in black and white and inspired by the iconic movie Black Swan it perfectly translates the depth and energy of the track.

Two years felt like forever, but GRiZ's new EP proves the funkstep icon was just recharging his batteries for a comeback for the ages. 
Timed perfectly with the buzz around his Seven Stars festival, GEMiNI is a compact yet potent showcase of his genre-blending prowess, a sonic love letter to fans who've been jonesing for that signature GRiZ fix. The project aptly reflects its astrological namesake, presenting dual musical personalities that showcase his range while reminding us why his return to the electronic music community is worth celebrating.
Kicking off with "Found Your Love," we're plunged into a bass-heavy vortex laced with soulful vocals and GRiZs signature, shimmering sax riffs. Next, "Take Me Home" ropes in Grabbitz, whose emo-tinged pleas ("All my broken parts scattered on their own") ride a tidal wave of anthemic drops.
"2-step Nassau" slinks into darker territory, delivering a nasty deep dubstep track with bass stabs that slither through the mix like vipers. GRiZ then closes out the EP with "Til the Color Fades," dialing up the dubstep noir with a woozy, shadowy banger.
In other GRiZ news, he recently revealed his own music festival, Seven Stars, and its inaugural lineup. The event, which he called his "first full-blown music festival," is scheduled for October 10-12 in Arrington, Virginia and will feature Subtronics, Levity, Of The Trees, Daily Bread, ALLEYCVT and many more.

‘Without You’ by Giuseppe Ottaviani is a trance track that features a powerful vocal performance by Adriana Stone. It follows the sucess of four other tracks, ‘Find You’, ‘We Are Free’, ‘Dust’, and ‘Who We Are’. We see its release on Armada Music. A core element of OTTAGON is the fusion of trance and melodic techno where he debuted it at Dreamstate SoCal last year. He played 12 new OTTAGON tracks now slowly being released tune by tune until the full album drops in May 2025.
‘Without You’ has a fast tempo and a catchy melody, as it builds to a powerful climax. The track couples with a pulsating bassline, intricate synth work, evocative vocals. The lyrics sing about the pain of losing someone you love with the hope that you will one day be together again. Reviews of the track highlight its emotional and powerful nature.
Ottaviani is recognized as a leading figure in trance music, and Stone’s vocal performance is highly regarded. So naturally, the duo paired well together for this tune. Giuseppe Ottaviani’s “OTTAGON” project started in 2024 and marks a significant evolution in his musical journey. The alias allows him to explore deeper connections between the two genres. This signifies a move towards a sound that combines the emotional depth of trance with the driving rhythms of techno. It is a project where he is taking musical risks, and providing his fans with something new.
About OTTAGON
OTTAGON performances feature an innovative live setup surrounding him on a 4×4 meter riser placed in front of the static DJ booth. The initial idea consisted of a 360° setup to be placed in the middle of the dance floor to move around and face people while playing the keyboards. However, Giuseppe decided the concept would only be available for festivals and not for clubs. The setup proved a challenge for festival grounds. Eight keyboards connect to his computer and allow him to assign any sound to any keyboard. This makes it easy to switch from one sound to another. Cameras placed all around the OTTAGON stage showcase what he can do on the big LED wall along with brand-new dedicated visuals.
Giuseppe is surely keeping his commitment to innovation and his desire to push the boundaries of electronic music. Listen to ‘Without You’ now on all streaming platforms.

MOGA Caparica has been a rapidly growing festival over the last few years and now for their 5th edition they’re going all out with a monster of a lineup to bring the party to Portugal.
The first wave of artists announced had already created a buzz with fantastic DJs including Jamie Jones, Lovefingers, Blond:Ish, and many more. The completion of this lineup has now been announced which has further boosted the anticipation for MOGA Caparica. The announcement has seen a hugely diverse lineup of artists added with the likes of the techno trailblazing Paula Tape, the beautifully melodic Agoria, and the underground master Seth Troxler. Further names include Chima Isaro, Gromma, IAMBP, Luisa, Nitefreak, Rui Vargas, Tiago Oudman, Sondido Tupinamba, Aline Umber, and Dexter.
Spread across 3 stages on the coastline of Costa da Caparica it offers the incredible experience of a beach holiday crossed over with a festival. There are few places that can boast having beach parties, boat parties, soul nourishing activities, a beautiful view, and food that’s to die for all in one place making MOGA Caparica truly special. You can dance all the way through till the morning as there is an afterparty everyday that will carry you into sunrise, and when you want to relax you can lie on the beach or go take part in one of the many free activities.
